Chapter 66: The Toy Store

Vane and the others, who had already placed their things at the door of the inn, followed Walker towards the toy store that Walker's uncle had mentioned. Barka was visibly excited. After all, in the gnolls' camp, they had harvested a large sum of money, and at this time Barka was planning to buy it aggressively.

Fortunately, due to Vane's warning, Barka had to come out with only one gold coin. If they really brought all the money out, what was waiting for them would not be shopping, but being robbed. After all, no matter what race there are, there are people with unclean hands and feet. This is not to say that the dwarves are no exception to their heroic personalities.

When you enter the toy store, there are various toys on the counter. As far as Vane was concerned, the toys were very coarse, but there were some finer things. For example, a clockwork frog is wound up to make the toy frog sit on the ground. As well as clockwork dolls, in addition to these, there are various fireworks and other things that can be purchased. But it was clear that these engineering creations were relatively low-level, and they could not impress Vane at all, so that he could pay for them.

Although it couldn't impress Vane, the clockwork doll clearly caught Kaliya's eye. She shook Vane's arm, stared at the bigfoot clockwork doll walking on the counter, and shouted to Vane, "Brother Vane, look, it can go." ”

"I see it, Kalia. Don't get excited. Vane patted the hand where Kalia was holding his arm.

"It's amazing, I want to buy it." As she spoke, Kalia turned to look into Vane's eyes, a pitiful expression on her face.

"Well, buy it if you like it." Looking at Kalia's expression like an abandoned puppy, Vane couldn't say no no matter what. After all, the money is Kaliya's own, and she doesn't need to ask Vane for advice if she wants to buy a toy clockwork doll.

"Okay, boss. How much does this clockwork doll cost? If it's too expensive, I can't afford it. Kalia turned to the toy store owner and shouted at him, her eyes fixed on the toy store owner.

"A clockwork doll isn't cheap, and you need a gold coin to get it. But it's great, isn't it? The boss, a bearded dwarf, replied after listening to Kalia's words and touching his beard with his hand.

"A gold coin?" Barka suddenly shouted from the sidelines, "This is also too expensive. So how much does this toy dog cost? ”

"This clockwork dog? This is cheaper than a clockwork doll, but it still costs seventy silver coins. The boss skimmed the wind-up dog that Barka was pointing to.

"What?" Barkaton was dumbfounded, he didn't expect these toys to be so expensive. So he turned to Walker and asked Walker, after all, Walker was a dwarf, and he should know the specific price.

Seeing that Barka, Kalia, and Vane were all looking at him, Walker suddenly understood what they meant, so he shrugged his shoulders and said, "No way, these clockwork toys are the latest inventions, and only a dwarf's senior technician can make them." So it's very expensive. After all, there are few of them, and no high-level technician of a dwarf will be idle and have nothing to do to make such a useless thing. ”

"But since no gnome would make these toys, why do they exist?" Barka asked puzzled.

"I can answer you about this, because the assessment of the senior technician is to make a qualified clockwork toy. That's why these things are made. Before Walker could answer, the owner of the toy store next to him explained: "These clockwork toys are usually for underage gnomes to play with, and it is because these things are very rare that I tried my best to get a few from the gnomes, but since the store opened, none of them have been sold, because their prices are too expensive." No one would spend so much money on a toy that didn't work. Damn, I must have fallen under some kind of spell, or I would never have done such a stupid thing. ”

Looking at the remorseful expression of the toy store owner, both Wayne and Walker were embarrassed. These clockwork toys purchased with a single gold coin can already become the treasure of this toy store. It's no wonder that these clockwork toys are so finely made, after all, they are the work of the assessment questions of the senior technicians of the gnomes.

Since there is no problem with this price, then Kalia naturally will not say anything. Take out the gold coin you have with you and give it to the owner of the toy store. The toy store owner was so shocked that he didn't know what to say, but instinctively picked up the clockwork doll and handed it to Kaliya.

Seeing that Kalia had already purchased the clockwork doll, Barka quickly took out the gold coin he was carrying, handed it to the owner of the toy store and said, "I want that clockwork dog." ”

As a result, Barka handed over a gold coin, and the boss took the clockwork dog to Barka again. He really didn't expect that these two things would be sold one day, looking at the two high elf toddlers in front of him, the toy store owner couldn't help but sigh, what a rich high elf. He had already regarded Kalia and Barka as nobles among the High Elves, because there were commoners and nobles in that race.

The High Elves he had been in contact with didn't cost as much money as Kalia and Balka, and he bought a gold toy without even thinking about it. Civilians of all ethnic groups would not be able to spend such money. At this time, a civilian's monthly labor is only a little more than a silver coin. The dwarven civilians, though thankful, will not exceed five silver coins a month. One can imagine what kind of impression Kaliya and Barka will give to the toy store owner.

At this time, the toy store owner came back to his senses, and immediately looked at Vane with both eyes, and asked Vane with a smile on his face, "What do you want to order, this kid?" This toy frog is also very fun, you see, after I wind it up, it can jump forward. ”

Vane: "......"

Looking at the bearded owner of the toy store who was diligently demonstrating all kinds of toys in front of him, constantly complimenting him on how fun his toys were, Vane really didn't know what to say. Only Walker watched Vane's predicament and laughed secretly. It wasn't until Vane's eyes looked at him that he coughed and cleared Vane and said, "Hey, boss." Your performance is useless. Because he wouldn't buy any toys at all. ”

"Why?" When the toy store owner heard this, he stopped his demonstration and asked Walker.

"Quite simply, because I don't like to play with toys." Vane shrugged at this point.

"That's right." The toy store owner looked disappointed and put the toys on the counter back where they belonged. While the boss put the toys back in their place, Vane and Walker hurriedly left the toy store with Kalia and Balka.
